Recent Notes

ADVISORY: nodes enforcing BIP-110 begin rejecting non-signaling blocks in ~2 days.

A chain split is possible, which carries real risks for all sides.

For Lightning operators, certain protections exist only before a split. We recommend acting now.

WAGMI!

Shame on you for not just recommending running Core! This fork is clearly doomed and closing channels has a real cost!

My start9 just stopped working, do people have issues with the fan? Strange timing for a problem as been working for years.

'To be more like money we cut off our way to be used as daily money.' Congratulatiins. You are def the biggest retards in this space.

Novotari · 1w

Well, isn't the lightning on the main chain unaffected? Lightning settles to the main chain, which keeps producing ~10-minute blocks with massive hash rate behind it. A starving minority fork doesn't disrupt that.

Signal enforcement splits more than chains. What specific actions should Lightning operators take now to protect channels?

marksn · 1w

As a normal lightning node runner. Just do nothing. And nothing happens to your node or funds!

McCoy · 1w

Key concept IMO: "A miner extending the enforcing branch can never be reorged off it, but if that branch stays the minority they are burning real hashrate on a slow minority ledger whose coins the economic majority may not recognize. Immunity to reorg is not immunity to loss."

SwapMarket · 1w

Nonsense. You made it sound like the chain will split in two more or less equall halves. While in fact it is 97% vs 3%. Knot nodes will be rejecting almost all the blocks and their chain will stall. Who cares to forfeit that worthless airdrop? If the chain were in fact to split close to 50/50, movin...

This was a mistake based on a misunderstanding of the consensusrules=rdts flag in bitcoin.conf. Both the version and docs are now correct and deployed to the production registry. Thank you for bringing this to our attention.

⚠ Important information for Bitcoin Knots BIP 110 activation client ⚠

HOW TO INSTALL?

1. Stop Bitcoin.
2. Download "bitcoind.s9pk" from the Github Release: https://github.com/Retropex/knots-startos/releases/tag/v29.2.knots20251110%2Bbip110-v0.1rc1
3. In StartOS, navigate to System -> Sideload a Service
4. Upload bitcoind.s9pk

WHY DOWNLOAD INSTEAD OF MARKETPLACE?

Due to a bug in StartOS 0.3.5.1, services with the same package ID cannot be listed on the same Registry.

Core is currently listed on the Start9 Registry. Knots is currently listed on the Community Registry. So Knots BIP 110 has no registry and therefore must be side loaded.

This issue is fixed in StartOS 0.4.0, when all three implementations of Bitcoin will be listed on the Start9 Registry. Switching between them will be clear and easy.

Over 1 year of continuous uptime for my DIY nostr:npub126ntw5mnermmj0znhjhgdk8lh2af72sm8qfzq48umdlnhaj9kuns3le9ll node! Now I'm going to open it up and finally upgrade the 1TB hard drive so we're read...

Wow, I think this is a record.

Moe · 36w

My backup power supply has saved me several times. I've been holding off on some hardware upgrades just to hit this milestone. Now I can blow out the dust, upgrade the hard drive, and hopefully keep it running for another year or more!

I guess what I am asking is if I can choose what version to update to. The core node is just a client right? Maybe some backend work on the client to choose what version is the solution?

Start9 @Start9 1764003513

In the marketplace listing, you can click "versions" and select the version you want to install.

Theory of Everything · 38w

Is it possible to choose what version of core to run on the start9? Just the knots protocol, Because you still need to download the whole blockchain before you use knots. Asking for a friend.

Start9 @Start9 1763600411

You can choose whether to run Core or Knots, and you can switch between them without needing to resync the chain. Hope that answers your question

K I had 3 services ready to go nearly a year ago and was told on matrix by y'all that new packages weren't being accepted for the old packaging standard BC 040 would be released in q1 this year.

Start9 @Start9 1763476009

We were advising people not to package for 0351, because we thought 040 was much closer than it was. That advisory was obviously a mistake. But I don't think we ever rejcted anything. You had 3 services done? What are they?

AU9913 · 38w

Meshtastic, kanbanstr and I forget the third (maybe flotilla). I had only submitted one because I wanted to go through the whole process so I could try to get a whole stamping process done as my goal for the year was to do 10, one of which was going to be enabling the CICD pipelines for Gitea but o...

AU9913 · 39w

Thought y'all were approving stuff on the old packaging standard anymore...

Start9 @Start9 1763408753

We're not encouraging it since 040 exists now. But we are also not going to prevent something for 0351 if it's ready to go
